Dwight Howard is hilarious. Kudos to VitaminWater for poking fun at its own pre-emptive hop on the Kobe/LeBron hype -- the company (like Nike) rolled out a campaign centered on debating the superiority of each star just in time for the run-up to the Finals. That ... didn't work out. (After the jump, the original Kobe/LeBron VitaminWater ad Dwight is cracking on.)
The real question of course: does Mickael Pietrus get his vitamins?

Best. Commercial. Ever. Lol. And a good recovery by Vitamin Water too. They needed to do something about that little mistake.
LOL at the laugh at the end of the clip.
ahaha, awesome commercial!
Where in any of the Lebron/Kobe commercials do they say they are going to the finals? Why does everyone keep saying thats what the commercials mean? They are just commercials comparing the best 2 players on the planet because thats what they are. NOT ONE OF THE CAMPAIGNS MENTIONED ANYTHING ABOUT THE FINALS....
Yeeeaaah . . . why would a company put "Kobe and LeBron in the finals!" on one of their ads? Lol. That has nothing to do with their product to begin with, plus it's a guess (which obviously didn't go through). You don't have to SAY something to MEAN it. It's implied. Vitamin Water and Nike were banking on it happening. It wasn't much of a coincidence that the two of them showed up in the same commercials around their respective conference finals times . . .
No its not implied. No time during the commercial do they imply it. Its just putting the 2 biggest stars together in a commercial. Why wouldnt a company do that? Its common sense. If it had come out at the beginning of the season instead of right before the playoffs people wouldnt think "oh Lebron and Kobe are in the same commercial they must think they are going to the Finals". The media (and i know the company with the commercials is considered media but im talking about the writers and analyists) are the ones that made everyone think thats what those companies meant. If it showed them playing against each other or something with a Finals symbol on the court or something THAT would be implying they would make it. Maybe you dont know what the word imply means. The further they both got in the playoffs the more the writers tried making it into an ad campaign for the Finals. It was put together for the reason of that they are to 2 biggest stars of the game. Duh... not rocket science....
Kudos for whoever thought of this Ad for Kobe and Lebron. Sooooooooo funny. Dwight Howard showing his jealousy that he is not big enough YET for something like this one. Oh well Dwight
I enjoyed watching the commercial between kobe and lebron they are the new rivals on the court and everyone would have enjoyed watching them in the championship and Kobe is doing his thing without shaq and lebron is awesome all by himself i hope lebron he doesn't become another iverson or barkley without a ring
Not funny, actually just plain dumb. it makes howard look like a fool
